Dan’s agent should just stick to doing agent stuff… jeeze
The Merry Gentry series is one of my all time favorites. It is heartwrenchingly romantic and beautiful. ❤❤ i cried quite a few times throughout the series. .... it really got me, deep down in my heart. ❤❤ ive read all the books Ms hamilton has written, and i love them all- but the merry gentry series is special to me❤
Good writer. Crummy politics.
"even the sticks have a personality" is a nice compliment.
I find two questions on Lachesis in one day
Kudos to the love fest for an agent :P
Is there a website for Dan Simmons? Where is he now in 2022? I"m going to re-read his books. He is in my top three authors along with Joyce Carol Oates and H.P. Lovecraft.
on my fifth title from mr simmons. some of the best things i've read in years.
I can not believe this little "old" video has a mere 33 views! (34 now). Back in the mid '90's when I stumbled upon The Hyperion Cantos I tried to find something-anything!- on Dan Simmons. All I could find was that cover sleeve photo of him, in all black staring right back thru the camera. I just wanted to go find the man, and shake him! and say: "What in the Hell is the matter with you, you beautiful monster!"
Great series, 'Crossfire'. Thank you, Ms. Sylvia Day!
Brandon you truly are a marvelous artist, mentor for all writers aspirants, and person
What a wonderful interview!!! Thanks to everyone who participated on it, it's absolutely interesting and very enjoyable 🖖🏼🥰
While we wait for the next book, I invite fans to enjoy a completely free novel. Just Google Warlock of Omaha. www.fanfiction.net/s/12224481/1/Warlock-of-Omaha
I really liked the book and would recommend it highly. That being said.... yetis would have been a better antagonist; I felt duped. The sky burial was an amazing bit of writing though.
When is the interview with the stick?
Joe Hill unintentionally foreshadowed A BASKETFUL OF HEADS in this interview lol
Its shocking how Dan isn't lauded as the greatest living author. Incredible writer.
He is... Hyperion, which I just finished, is one of the greatest novels ever written. IMO, the only living author on Simmons level is Cormac McCarthy.
The Cantos are amazing. Hyperion is something that can't be replicated for a few generations. Simmons scathing critique of yahweh during the Saul story. The way he wrote Martin Silenus without writing for the first half of his song. The poetry of the Consuls story. The near perfect noir of Brawn Lamia. The unattainable levels of inspired writing considering Father Hoyt, Father Paul Doreé, and the Bikura. The Epic of Maui Covenant.... The entire Aenean Saga. Dan is a national treasure. In future datarchealogical excursions, Dan wil be Herodotus and Thucidides combined.
he should be in the conversation for sure
The things i like about this book you talking about and laughing about it , I will want too read the book more. and I will buy more of this book of yours. I like woman talking about what they written and it open the door how i will talk too a woman.
I love Dan Simmons, but there are some that I just can't get into. I mean, Hyperion and Illium, for instance, are light years beyond Fires Of Eden or Flashback. Perhaps, the Hyperion/Illium series spoiled me. Summer of Night scared me too death. The Terror was a brutal read (I read it going through methadone withdrawals)
3 years ago I was going through heroin withdrawals and the audio book version of Endymion really got me through some of it. I still listen to it once a year around that same time. Bad memories but good memories too
I want to read NOS$RA2, can we still buy a signed copy?
I've just finished Wheel of Time book 5 and Brandon just spoiled to me that Mat dies in the last ones. Damn my luck
You fuckin assholes
shush
Yeah, but he'll be back.
MIMI!!!
I like most of her books. but I was disappointed with this long overdue new book of this series.
I love his writings. I'm looking forward to the next book about the bridgemen.
Vancha March "Hey Chilinko come back here, I wanna stick you to the wall" I fucking love The Lopen. I agree I wanna know who's gonna be a knight and who's gonna be a squire.
David Burstein and Suneil Ahuja are absolute con artists. Run for America is a fraudulent organization that pockets money but does nothing in the political arena. This is a big scam!
i love these books i am currently reading biting cold
I would be even happier to pay full price for the amazing work put together by Ilona Andrews, how would you ever feel cheated giving these two brilliant writers as much as possible to support their amazing work. not to mention it keeps more of it coming!
Awesome interview!
I've read all Douglas Kennedy books. Does anyone know of any books that are similar to his?
next ----> Manhattan!
I'm moving to Manhattan!
She is a very funny writer love reading her books when you want humor and romance I have not found another author as funny.
What book are they talking about at 13:00?
You probably already know this answer by now, haha, but they were talking about Burn for Me from their new Hidden Legacy series.
jimmy b is the best.
As a Crossfire Series fan, I don't like the idea of seeing Gideon and Eva on screen. I saw them, I felt them, I heard them -- bcoz Sylvia Day is such a wonderful author, she already put the 'screen' on the pages. As a non-english speaking native, I'm always surprise whenever I re-read the first three books the scenes in my mind are so crystal clear that made me realized that Gideon is Gideon and Eva is Eva from the very first book! Gideon's dark and dangerous feel (from the book) is unique and there's no actor that'll match him. Same with Eva, Cary, Ireland and every characters on the book. Everyone is real, you can't imagine any actor that'll do justice to their characters. Or maybe, I just love them all to much to protect them from being 'miscasted' and that they are their 'own' person, noone can clone them. I know it's selfish but that how I feel.
I hate cliff hangers on book series that I'd read but I'm wandering if there is another book after snakeroot?
Fantastic interview.
Thoughts on cheat meals?
Gosh I adore Laurell Hamilton she's a genius!, and I agree, men so do get off easy where pregnancy is concerned!! I have three children, not triplets, and each pregnancy, although a miracle and I loved feeling my babies move around inside my tummy, was very different and the births were hard bc Epidurals wouldn't take on me so I had to do it all natural and you better believe I appreciated each one of my sweet little babies after all of those hours of hardcore labor!! I think it is great Laurell wrote about pregnancy and the woes and such that go along with it! Romance novels always sort of skip past all that and everyone lives in bliss which is so not the way it goes. LKH is amazing bc she actually takes fictional stories and makes you believe them! She is pure genius! Love love love her!! My fav author of all time!
First coment yea lol i hate you
I love Andrea Cremer! It is obvious she has put her heart completely to her books and they seem so real that I think everything in them is happening! I just adore her books! Always will be a fan and will always follow along!
I loved it! They are my favorite writing team, being interviewed by another of my favorites! I had a few lol moments.
Jim has optioned the rights for DF to an as yet unnamed studio.
Jim Butcher's Dresden Files is a must-read.
Jim killed a couple of his teachers? AWESOME!
"The Headmaster's Wife" is a fantastic novel. Lyrical and beautifully written, slyly compulsive, and, as the book unfolds, poignant and profound. If you're coming across this video, and you haven't read the work yet, do yourself a favor and track it down as soon as possible. It's a wonderful and worthwhile read. Read this book in one day, and then set out to read other titles by Thomas Christopher Greene. He is one incredibly talented author.
I actually got into The Dresden Files books because of the series. I agree with Jim, the series isn't THAT bad. I actually really liked the actors. Specially the guy who plays Dresden and the woman who pays Murphy. Their lines though, were atrocious and the writing was just all over the place. I had a good time watching regardless, and it did pointed me to the books, which are just AMAZING.
ooooh boy! its next week! clearing my reading schedule.
war for the oaks i believe is the book she speaks of at 25;18
